Crop production and Agriculture Russia continues to develop from year to year. Most agricultural products are grown in greenhouses. Today, the state provides active support to the greenhouse complex, supporting small business farmers with subsidies and subsidies. All greenhouse products are in great demand. All this contributes to the creation and development of large and small greenhouses.

At the heart of the greenhouse business There are three directions of growing crops - vegetables, herbs, flowers. For each industry there are certain greenhouses. Experts say that profitable business income can only be obtained in a hot climate. Moreover, the temperature in winter should not fall below 5 degrees. A cold and frosty winter is a big risk, in order to minimize it, you will have to invest a lot of money in the purchase of special materials for winter greenhouses. Winter greenhouse as a business is less profitable. Thus, the losses from the winter may be several times higher than the costs incurred. for the transportation of grown products to the northern regions.

There are a few questions for a new entrepreneur. Which direction to choose: is it seasonal or permanent greenhouse business? How to plan the future business? An ordinary greenhouse is suitable for organizing seasonal farming, while for a permanent business you will need special industrial premises with protected ground, where the greenhouse is heated and illuminated all year round.

Business plan development

A business plan will help calculate all expenses and possible income; think out financial risks and other questions that are difficult to calculate in the mind. The points of the plan include several sections. The sections take into account all the nuances of this business, taking into account natural and climatic factors (winter and year-round greenhouses). Plan sections:

Non-core investors lined up for the construction of greenhouses

In the Russian agro-industrial complex, there is a boom in greenhouse construction, and companies that have never been involved in the greenhouse business have rushed to build greenhouses. We talked about the features of greenhouse construction in Russian conditions with executive director National Union of Producers of Fruits and Vegetables by Mikhail GLUSHKOV.

The greenhouse is reimbursed for a fifth of the construction costs

Mikhail Vladimirovich, why did non-core investors suddenly rush to build greenhouses? For example, the Greenhouse company, the controlling stake of which belongs to the son of Roman Abramovich, is starting to build a greenhouse complex in the Belgorod region. Vadim Moshkovich's Rusagro agricultural holding, which has not dealt with greenhouses before, is also going to build greenhouses. AFK "Sistema" Vladimir Yevtushenko bought the largest agro-combinat "Yuzhny" in Karachay-Cherkessia, and the company also has plans to build...

The answer is simple: this industry has become attractive for investors. What is it connected with? The fact is that we receive a fairly large share of imported greenhouse products, the prices for which are by no means low. And it is the imported vegetables, as it were, that "keep" a fairly attractive price bar on the vegetable market.

The second reason is measures state support. Today, according to Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 24, 2015 No. 624, investors are subsidized 20% of capital costs for construction plus part interest rate on credit. What is 20% compensation in practice?

An investor comes to the bank and says, "I want to build a greenhouse." They answer him: “Well, you pay 20% yourself, and we will give you 80% in the form of a loan.” A person safely invests his 20%. And a year later, when the greenhouse has already been built, the state compensates him for these 20% own funds. For an investor, these are very good conditions.

In addition, vegetables are now in demand, and the government is pursuing a very clear policy in the field of import substitution.

All these factors attract new investments to the industry.

It turns out that the state gives all the cards to the new "vegetable" business?

Yes. It is only necessary to add here that this measure appeared quite recently, in 2015. It was a real breakthrough. The fact is that representatives of our union have repeatedly spoken at meetings of various levels, convincing us: we need to develop, we need to support the industry, we have a high share of imports.

And finally, we were asked what we need "for happiness"? It was then that we proposed our scheme: 20% reimbursement of capital costs for construction. And the government supported us.

True, since this measure has just been introduced, not everyone has had time to really use it yet, but it will work in full force in 2017. However, in December 2015, the first subsidies were already paid.

But does the investor still have to prove that he is entitled to such a 20% refund?

Yes, there is a certain selection. You just need to immediately build in accordance with the selection criteria. And if you build a greenhouse that does not meet these criteria, you cannot count on any subsidies and reimbursements.

The greenhouse should be an area of ​​3 hectares, with a yield of 50 kg per square meter. The complex must be connected to energy and water resources. And, finally, to have the conclusion of the State Expertise.

And what is more profitable: to build a greenhouse from scratch or to reconstruct an old greenhouse complex?

Today we have about 2,300 hectares of greenhouses, of which about 500 hectares are modern. All the rest are old greenhouse complexes, which are ineffective in relation to today's conditions. It is necessary and possible to modernize them, but in any case, the result is not so competitive.

The new greenhouses are modern technologies literally in everything. There, the cost is much less. New enterprises have a huge yield: up to 100 kg of products per 1 sq. m. For comparison: old enterprises, on average, get only 30 kg per “square”.

So, if possible, it is better to build a new one right away than to patch up the old one.

To what extent is the interest rate on loans for the construction of greenhouse complexes subsidized today?

It is subsidized from two sources: from the federal budget - two-thirds of the refinancing rate, as well as from the regional budget (here the figures are different in each region).

Let's say I take a loan at 13%. In the bank I contacted, today's refinancing rate is 10%. I count two-thirds and get 6.6% - that's what the federal budget then compensates me for. And another 2-4% can be subsidized by the regional budget. It turns out that I can get a loan at only 3%!

It has already been calculated that the greenhouse pays off in about seven years: it takes two years to build it and five years to work for profit.

How we got ahead of Holland

Okay. At the very least, we started building greenhouses, but things are much worse with their engineering support. It is no secret that the leading greenhouse enterprises have imported irrigation systems, temperature and light controls. Does our industry intend to catch up with the world standards of greenhouse engineering? And what's stopping it?

If some domestic systems are produced today, then, alas, they are a shell for imported components: that is, outside - ours, but inside - still imported. Moreover, our systems are worse than imported ones in terms of quality, but the price is the same. It is not surprising that everyone who builds today prefers to buy materials and equipment abroad.

It must be admitted that our "greenhouse" industry is still very poorly developed. Companies that produce at least something for greenhouse growers can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

Take the same metal structures, for example. After all, how are we doing now? They export raw materials (metal) abroad, they produce constructs (racks for greenhouses), then ready-made are being brought here.

It would seem that we can’t produce at home? But no! Tried - not working yet. A year later, our domestic metal structures rust for some reason: either the quality of galvanization is poor, or something else ...

You know, we had an investor who experimented with domestic products. He caught fire to do everything on his own: they say, I will order everything from myself, take the Dutch drawings and order. And what is the result? Large parts were made to him more or less normally, and every little thing (accessories) simply did not fit during assembly. He suffered, suffered, and as a result, he ordered all this trifle in Holland anyway. Both funny and sad...

In a word, we can still do something large, large-scale. But where filigree work is needed ... A greenhouse, after all, it must be airtight. There are no gaps allowed in principle. We simply do not have companies that can do this in such capacity.

In addition, the Russians are turning around quite slowly: with existing capacities (leaving aside quality), they can supply equipment at best 3 hectares per year. And according to the state program, we need to build 350 hectares each!

And yet I hope that over time we will have some joint ventures. Such as in the construction industry, for example. Some of the foreign investors will come and say: let's build a plant. We are waiting for such a person!

Mikhail Vladimirovich, but did high technologies come to our greenhouses?

Undoubtedly. I'll even tell you more: some of our greenhouses are better than in the same Holland. Yes, yes, the last large greenhouse complexes there were built ten years ago using old technologies. And our greenhouses of recent years have been built according to the most “advanced” modern standards.

We did not go through intermediate stages - we immediately built greenhouses of the latest generation. There are automatic watering, and lighting, and bioprotection (they fight pests not with chemical, but with biological methods), and interplanting (when an old seed is planted on a fruit-bearing plant, and the crop is harvested almost all year round), and interlighting (additional lighting of the lower tiers of plants), and much more.

What construction innovations are currently being used?

First of all, it should be noted an innovative coating that is used instead of glass. This is cutting edge film. Due to the fact that it is lighter, the distance between the uprights of the structure can be greater - which means that metal structures are saved.

Look not at the quality of the soil, but at how much electricity costs

Recently, many greenhouse complexes began to acquire their own mini-CHPs, which significantly reduce the cost of electricity generated. How quickly do these additional investments pay off?

Today we have an average tariff for electricity - 4 rubles. for 1 kW. Illumination (light power) in a good greenhouse should be 2 MW per 1 ha per hour - this is a huge amount of electricity. And many, in order not to buy such an amount of electricity, build so-called mini-CHPs, supply them with gas piston units and generate their own electricity.

Before the dollar rose in price, it was very profitable, and almost everyone did it. Now that the dollar has doubled in price, many are wondering if the game is worth the candle. Let's guess. Mini-CHP pulls at a cost of about 30% of the cost of the entire complex. Very big money is obtained.

Therefore, greenhouse complexes are now trying to switch to preferential tariffs - "High Voltage", etc., in order to be less dependent on "gepeushki" (gas piston installations). They try to make this dependence minimal also because the quality of such gas piston installations has recently declined greatly

One greenhouse owner recently bought four GPUs, and in the winter three of these four units stopped working. In a panic, he rushed to call the Dutch manufacturer. The manufacturer replies: "I can only come in a week." As a result, half of his vegetables froze, and he suffered enormous losses.

Today, a good alternative to mini-CHPs is preferential tariffs for electricity. Therefore, I would advise an investor who chooses a place to build greenhouses to pay attention, first of all, to how much electricity costs there.

And one more piece of advice. Now the Government of the Russian Federation has identified points where newly built greenhouse complexes can connect to the federal grid energy company and consume electricity at a reduced rate.

How many vegetables are lacking in Russia today?

The plan for this year is to produce 850 thousand tons. Imports will be about 600 thousand tons. Last year we produced 750 thousand tons, and imported 800 thousand tons. That is, this year the situation is better.

In total, we now have 2,300 hectares of greenhouse areas, but we would need 3,500 hectares. So there is still a lot of work...

If the payment schedule is fulfilled, the average construction period for a greenhouse complex with an area of ​​3 to 10 hectares is about a year. Thus, when calculating the investment period, the researchers took as an assumption that the time for investing fixed assets falls on 6-10 months before the complex is put into operation. It should be noted that in the calculations, the researchers of "Technology of Growth" took into account only projects with the declared volume of investments, while some investors prefer not to report on the volume of investments.

Some projects at the time of the study were in the pre-project stage, so the amount of funds required has not yet been determined.

The last 3-4 years are characterized by a stable level of non-core business investment in flower industrial greenhouses. The total volume of invested and disbursed funds for 2006 - 1 quarter. 2009 reaches 236 million euros.

Diagram 6.

Most large investments were produced in the projects "Mokshansky" (60 million euros mastered in 2006 - 2009), "South-Agro" (more than 47 million euros in 2006 - 2009), "Ramensky Greenhouses" (42.5 million euros). euro in 2008-2009).

Of the planned investments until 2015, the largest projects are Chekhov Garden (about 50 million euros), Anapa (68 million euros), New Holland (53 million euros).

Notable flower projects announced by investors for the period up to 2015 have a total estimated cost of 277 million euros. Some of the projects are likely to be frozen due to the crisis in the global and Russian economy in 2009. On the other hand, there will be other investors who managed to maintain income from the core business during this difficult time, and aimed at diversification. In any case, growing roses and other cut flowers will remain an attractive business in Russia for a long time to come.

“Vegetable” investment projects have a completely different dynamics. At the time of the study (spring 2009), non-core investors had invested only 45.5 million euros in the construction of industrial greenhouses for growing vegetables and herbs, i.е. more than 5 times less than in flower greenhouses for the same period.

However, the announced vegetable greenhouse projects for 2009-2015 have an estimated cost of 651 million euros, which is almost 3 times more than similar investments in flower greenhouses.

It should be noted that a significant part of the planned investments in the development of greenhouse vegetable growing in Russia falls on the projects of the Capital Vegetables Group led by B. Gorkunov. The total investment of the Group is 116 million euros, part of which has already been disbursed in 2008 - Q1. 2009.

At the time of the study, the Group was working closely on 5 projects of industrial greenhouses with vegetable specialization near Novosibirsk, Yaroslavl, Magnitogorsk, Rostov-on-Don and Kuban.

Among other major investors in vegetable greenhouses is the Novye Peaks company, which plans to build up to 200 hectares by 2018 closed ground in the Astrakhan region, the company started construction of the first stage of 20 hectares in 2008. "New Peaks" were able to enter the regional program of the agro-industrial complex, supported by the local administration, and agree on obtaining preferential loans. The volume of planned investments in the project is 230 million euros.

Noteworthy is the project of TC "Stolyarovo" in the Kuban, which was going to be developed at the expense of the German "Superfinancebank". The volume of investments is more than 100 million euros, the first tranche of which was received and disbursed in 2008. According to press reports in 2009, the project is now on the verge of bankruptcy due to the failure of the German partner's payment schedule.

The project "Baltimore" in the Astrakhan region, which planned to start construction of a vegetable greenhouse with an area of ​​30 hectares, was frozen in 2008. The planned investment amounted to more than 80 million euros, however, due to the sale of the assets of the investor company, the fate of the project is not yet clear.

Researchers consider it highly probable to postpone the construction and equipping of part of the investment projects for a year or two. It is also possible to slow down the pace of construction and reduce the planned area. At the same time, the interest of potential investors in industrial greenhouses in recent years has a clearly positive trend.

Calculations "Technology of Growth"

The total amount of assimilated investments of non-core investors in greenhouse production in Russia over the past 4 years is 281.6 million euros.

In the long-term plans of investors until 2015 - to build modern industrial greenhouses in Russia in the amount of 928 million euros. The main part of the planned investments should be mastered before 2012.

* Calculations use average data for Russia

It is no secret that the agricultural industry in our country is going through hard times these days. better times. However, a business in this area can be very profitable, especially if the entrepreneur has the necessary knowledge and experience for this.

Among the most promising directions one can also name the so-called greenhouse business, which is most relevant for the central part of Russia, where there is a shortage of fresh vegetables in the pre-season and off-season.

Profitability of the greenhouse business

Competition in this area is assessed as relatively low. The most difficult thing is to accurately assess the profitability of such a business project. This indicator depends on many variables and, first of all, on the geographical location of the greenhouse industry. On the one hand, as mentioned above, growing fresh vegetables in a greenhouse is more in demand for the middle lane and northern regions of our country than for the south. In the south, the competition is much higher and the off-season is much shorter.

On the other hand, the central part of Russia is characterized by sharp temperature changes and even frosts. In addition, there is a shortage of sunlight. Consequently, additional costs for lighting and heating of greenhouses will be required, which, in turn, will lead to an increase in the cost of production. Thus, growing greenhouse vegetables, for example, in Moscow and the Moscow region may not be profitable due to the high cost of local greenhouse products and taking into account the fact that large quantities of fruits and vegetables are imported to this region from the south at lower prices.

Of course, profitability directly depends on what exactly is grown in greenhouses. Most often it is greens, flowers and vegetables. In addition, experienced agronomists undertake to grow various exotic crops for our country in greenhouses. The latter option is not suitable for a novice entrepreneur for two more reasons: its implementation requires considerable investments, and the business itself is characterized by high risks, which are associated, firstly, with the capriciousness of such plants, and secondly, with the inability to accurately predict the demand for such products for Russian market.

In the first place in terms of profitability in the greenhouse business are flowers, but investments in flower business will be the most impressive, as you will need extensive areas for the construction of greenhouses. But if you still don't have much starting capital, no special experience in growing greenhouse plants, experts advise starting with greens (onions, parsley, dill, lettuce, etc.), which are much less whimsical to weather conditions, have a good “yield” and are in consistently high demand.

Basic requirements for growing vegetables

If you still intend to start growing vegetables, then it is recommended to pay attention to the so-called eco-direction. Recently, residents of large cities of our country began to think about their health and prefer environmentally clean products. However, for that In order for your product to be called “green”, you will need to issue an environmental certificate for it. An environmental certificate of conformity is a document that confirms the environmental safety of products, including their operation, storage and transportation.

It is issued only after the manufacturers have passed the environmental certification procedure, during which the compliance of the entire production process and the products themselves with accepted environmental standards is established. Environmental certification is a voluntary procedure, but its passage significantly increases the competitiveness of your products.

For To obtain an environmental certificate, you will need to submit the following documents: application in free form, product specifications, full package technical documentation, certificate of conformity GOST R if any, certificate of state registration applicant enterprise. This list may vary, depending on the type of certified products. The procedure for passing environmental certification is quite complicated and long.

It consists of several stages. First, the applicant company submits to the certification center all Required documents, as well as an application for a certificate of environmental safety compliance. Then the certification center analyzes the provided product documentation, gets acquainted with the production process, makes a decision on the submitted application, signs an agreement to fulfill the application, analyzes test reports, audits production or technical process, selects samples for testing, conducts product testing and, finally, decides to issue or refuse to issue an environmental safety certificate.

If a positive decision is made, a certificate of conformity is issued with its subsequent transfer to the applicant. The cost of passing the environmental certification procedure is from 55 thousand rubles.

So, let's sum up. Investments in the flower business are 4-5 times higher than investments in growing vegetables. A growing greens is 4 times more profitable than growing vegetables. However, the final decision on what exactly you will grow on your plot should be made only after conducting a thorough marketing research of the region where you live and the local market.

Ready-made ideas for your business

Pay attention to which products are in the greatest demand, what your competitors offer and at what prices, how they sell their products. Consider also the climatic features of the region and your opportunities for starting a business. For example, if at first you plan to work only with retail, then you should give preference to greens (dill, lettuce, parsley, onion), radish, strawberries. In addition, you can increase your profits by growing and selling seedlings of various horticultural and horticultural crops in early spring.

If you are counting on high incomes and a quick payback, then you need to rely on wholesale sales. In this case, experts advise paying attention to tomatoes and cucumbers. Finally, if you already have access to the owners of restaurants and cafes and an agreement with them on direct deliveries, then you can take a chance and start growing more whimsical plants, the cost of which, accordingly, will be higher than the cost of common crops.

Ready-made ideas for your business

Consider also the distance between your farm and potential buyers. The farther from the city your greenhouses are located, the more profitable it will be to grow “light” products (that is, one that will weigh less and will not be too demanding on storage and transportation conditions).

Finally, profitability depends on the chosen technological process. But even here it is not so simple. For example, the hydroponics method provides maximum yield at minimum cost when growing vegetables. This technology can be used with equal success by both small greenhouses and large agricultural enterprises. However, its main drawback lies in the low taste of the finished product.

It is not uncommon for vegetables grown in this way, although cheap, to have little to no taste. Accordingly, they will not be in great demand either. For this reason, for growing vegetables, it is recommended to use the more expensive, but in this case quite justified traditional system with the use of fertilizers.

The industry average profitability is estimated at 15%. In some cases, with the right niche and production technologies, it can reach 25%!

How to draw up documents for growing vegetables

If the land plot for the construction of greenhouses is your property and you do not plan to work on a large scale, hire additional workers and sell finished products to legal entities, then there are no special documents for organizing such subsidiary farm not required. To sell the crop, it will be enough to take a certificate stating that the land on which the greenhouses are located belongs to you.

If you are going to attract additional labor, organize more large production and sell their products through stores, retail chains, as well as supply it to institutions Catering, then you will have to register as an individual entrepreneur or organize a private agricultural enterprise. In the latter case, you will be entitled to certain tax incentives, but keep in mind that in practice, achieving many of them will not be so easy.

State registration of peasant farms (PFH) is carried out in the same manner that was established for the state registration of individuals as individual entrepreneurs. In this case, only the head of the farm is registered. To do this, he must submit the following documents to the registration authority:

application for registration (legal form);

an agreement on the creation of a peasant (farm) economy (if there is a need for it);

a copy of the main identity document of the head of the farm (passport);

document on payment of the state fee (original);

copies of documents confirming the relationship / property of members of the peasant economy.

Please note: an application for switching to a special taxation regime (STS or tax for agricultural producers) is submitted simultaneously with the submission of documents for registering a farm. Then the selected mode can be applied from the moment of registration of the KFH.

Ready-made ideas for your business

The farm is registered by the authorized body at the place of permanent registration (registration) of the head of the farm. Its terms are on average five working days from the date of submission of documents. As a result, you will receive a Certificate of state registration of the head of a peasant farm, a Certificate of registration with the territorial tax authority, an extract from the Unified state register individual entrepreneurs and an information letter from the State Statistics Committee with OKVED codes.

If the farm is organized not by one person, but by several, then an agreement must be concluded between all participants, which provides the following information:

about the members of the farm;

on the recognition of one of the members of this farm as the head of the farm, the powers of the head of the farm and the procedure for managing the farm;

on the rights and obligations of members of the farm;

on the procedure for the formation of property of a farm, the procedure for possession, use, disposal of this property;

on the procedure for admission to membership in a farm and the procedure for withdrawing from membership in a farm;

on the procedure for the distribution of fruits, products and incomes received from the activities of the farm.

This list of information may be extended. Copies of documents confirming the relationship of citizens who have decided to create a joint farm are attached to the agreement. In addition, the agreement is signed by all members of the farm.

What equipment is needed for a greenhouse business

Regardless of which crops you have chosen for growing in greenhouses, whether you own or lease the land for their construction, whether you are going to manage with your savings or plan to take loans, you need to start organizing this type of business by drawing up a detailed business -plan.

In it, you will be able to assess the situation on the regional market, decide on the format of your future business (it can be either seasonal with the use of cheaper and simple farm greenhouses, or permanent with the construction of industrial greenhouses with constant heating and lighting), assess the possibilities of marketing and searching buyers, calculate costs and profits, project funding sources, etc. The costs of organizing such a business directly depend on the type of greenhouses that you will use. The most widespread in our country are two types of greenhouses - film and glass. Film, or polyethylene greenhouses have a lower cost.

By cons include the low light transmission ability of the film and its insufficient strength, as well as high humidity inside the greenhouse. On average, once a season, such greenhouses must be replaced. "Productivity" with the use of film greenhouses will also be lower, because plants will have to be planted in them later, which, accordingly, increases the ripening time of the crop. Glass or winter greenhouses have a more complex design and are more expensive than film ones.

To the pluses can be attributed to their durability, relative strength and good light transmission. Under certain conditions, they can grow vegetables even in the winter season. But still, glass is a rather fragile material, and the cost of replacing broken glass will be higher than the cost of replacing torn polyethylene, which should also be taken into account when making an estimate.

Recently, greenhouses of the third type, made of polycarbonate or acrylic, are becoming more widespread, which is more durable than glass and film, has good transparency and light scattering. The level of illumination in a polycarbonate greenhouse is twice as high as in a polyethylene greenhouse.

Its additional advantage- no need to make a foundation, as is the case with glass greenhouses. But still, unfortunately, polycarbonate greenhouses are also not perfect and have their drawbacks. First of all, this applies to arched structures, which are the most common. Their popularity is explained only by the fact that it is more profitable for greenhouse manufacturers to produce just such structures, since a standard polycarbonate sheet is 2.1 by 6 meters in size. There are also sheets up to 12 meters long, but they are difficult to transport and inconvenient to use.

A standard polycarbonate sheet is bent into an arc in such a way that the height of the structure is, as a rule, 3.8 meters and the length, respectively, 6 meters, although these parameters can be increased or decreased if necessary. Such a greenhouse is considered small in size. With intensive cultivation, the land in it is quickly depleted, so it is necessary to fertilize it regularly. The main disadvantage of a polycarbonate greenhouse The arched structure lies in the uneven illumination and in the large reflection of light, as a result of which only part of the plants is well illuminated. To eliminate these shortcomings by increasing the flow of light, you can make the roof of the greenhouse not semicircular, but flat, and the northern part of the greenhouse - opaque.

Plants in polycarbonate greenhouses can be planted directly into the ground, but in this case it will be difficult to maintain the recommended temperature regime. Experts advise nevertheless to use the so-called flooring, which is a metal mesh stretched over a wooden frame. Along the perimeter of such a greenhouse there are several rows of flooring, between which a small free space is left to provide access to them.

As in conventional greenhouses, in polycarbonate structures it is necessary to ensure constant air exchange, for which through fans are used. V summer time they can be disabled to save costs. One mechanical through fan will cost 6.5-7 thousand rubles.

The hydroponics system mentioned above, with all its shortcomings, allows reducing the vegetable growing cycle to 2-3 weeks (which is 5-10 times faster than with traditional growing methods) with a yield of up to 2-3 tons of products per hectare. To maintain such a greenhouse, 5-7 workers per hectare of usable area will be required.

When calculating the cost of building one greenhouse, consider the following costs: project documentation for the greenhouse itself and all its external networks (electricity, water supply, etc.), which should include a specification for all equipment used; purchase of planting material plus funds for current expenses up to the receipt of the first profit.

If you are just looking for a site to accommodate your greenhouse, then consider the location of the necessary communications. The farther they are located from the site, the higher the cost of summing up. Pay attention to the area around the proposed greenhouse installation site. It should be sufficiently flat and spacious so that access roads can be organized. If you are renting land, opt for prefabricated greenhouses. They are more expensive than non-separable ones, but these costs are fully justified, because in which case you can easily transfer them to a new place.

A lot of controversy among entrepreneurs working in the "greenhouse" area raises the question of the need to invest additional funds for heating greenhouses. Some believe that it is not necessary to invest a lot of money in modern expensive equipment. Others believe that the higher costs in the first stage are later offset by higher production efficiency. Whatever your opinion, experts still recommend starting to save money from the profits and gradually modernizing the equipment used. Do not forget that it is heating and electricity that account for up to 90% of all running costs for the maintenance and service of greenhouses.

How much will we spend and how much will we earn?

Among the main expenses for organizing a greenhouse economy are the following: rent of a plot, construction of greenhouses and purchase of the necessary equipment, working equipment, purchase of plants, fertilizers, wage farm workers. Renting a land plot will cost from 80 thousand rubles a year. For one greenhouse with an area of ​​​​one hectare with everything necessary equipment it will take from 300 thousand rubles (the final amount depends on the type of greenhouse). About 200 thousand more rubles will be spent on inventory, seedlings / seeds, fertilizers.

To maintain a large greenhouse, a minimum of two to three workers will be required. The functions of a farm manager can be performed independently at first. For medium-sized enterprises, about ten workers per hectare of land allocated for greenhouses are taken into account. The use of the latest technologies and modern equipment (with automatic irrigation and heating) will significantly reduce the number of maintenance personnel.

Where do wise investors invest during sanctions?

We invite partners to joint business, on the terms:

Up to 110% per annum

Payback up to 5 months

Everything possible risks insured

If you start talking about investing in agriculture among investors, it will immediately turn into a conversation about high levels of risk, however, every professional can recall examples of profitable agricultural complexes.

Over the past 6 years, we have gained experience in the production of vegetables in greenhouses, established an operating enterprise and formed an active and professional team. Today we are on the verge of expanding our business and we invite co-investors to take advantage of our experience and earn money with us.

We need investments to build another 115 greenhouses on our land (in addition to the existing 23) for year-round cultivation of tomatoes and cucumbers.

Why investors work with us?

There is always a demand for vegetables. No matter what happens in the world, people buy food, in particular fresh and healthy vegetables. You are participating in a business that works always and in all conditions. The demand for our products is especially evident under sanctions and a high exchange rate. In addition, every year we see an increase in demand for environmentally friendly products, like ours.

Vegetables without GMOs and chemicals. On the market, 90% of vegetables grown in hydroponics (without soil), there are many of them, they are beautiful and have a long shelf life. However, they have no aroma or taste. We grow only healthy vegetables, for which there is a crazy demand and a constant increase in prices, respectively, an increase in your profits. Thus, we emphasize our responsibility to ensure that our fellow citizens have safe vegetables all year round, and we take care of the formation of a healthy gene pool of the country.

Your risks are insured. For 6 years of growing vegetables, we have not only succeeded in business development, we have learned to insure against various risks. We are leading legal business and insure agricultural risks.

Our security system is:

To reach zero, you need to sell 44 tons of products at a pessimistic average annual price of 60 rubles (2.625.000 rubles / 60 rubles =). For a year - three cycles, in each cycle in this case, you need to grow no more than (44 tons / 3 =) 14 tons of products.

At the same time, with a greenhouse area of ​​1.000 m2, the yield will be no more than (14.000kg/1.000m2=) 14 kg/m2, which is 2 times lower than the planned (statistical) yield. That is, in the event of emergency events that partially and systematically or completely destroyed the crop over 2 cycles, your investment will nevertheless be returned.

In addition, do not forget about crop insurance, this is the second source of return on investment. Thus, your investments are legally protected, you have ironclad guarantees not only for the return of investments, but also for compensation for lost profits.

Your participation is not required. We take care of everything related to the cultivation and sale of the crop. You do not need to create a team, implement technologies and look for distribution channels. This is done by our specialists, you only get passive income on a quarterly basis. However, we give you the opportunity to take part in related businesses (more on that below)

The business is open all year round. Vegetables are grown in protected ground, in greenhouses. This enables the consumer to receive fresh products at any time of the year, and you get profit.

If everything is so good with us, why do we need investors?

Now we are investing all the profits we make in the construction of greenhouses and infrastructure development. We can build another 115 greenhouses on the existing site alone. But…

Using only your strengths and resources, to fully implement the planned production plan, we will be able only in 12 years. Therefore, we attract investors to accelerate the development process and ensure a return on investment in 5 months, and a yield of up to 110% per year.

How did we manage to create such profitable terms for investors?

In our opinion, we succeeded for 4 reasons:

2. Unique design of greenhouses. Reasonable distribution and preservation of heat, optimal air circulation and a host of other nuances that make it possible to rationally use natural resources and grow quality products. Saved hundreds of thousands of rubles on public services we invest in modern engineering stuffing.

3. A team of trained experts. We have assembled a team of the best agronomists, technicians, sales managers from different countries of the world and we attract the most effective technologies and experience to our business.

4. The right business model for working with investors. We give the opportunity to become the owner of a part of an already operating and profitable business. At the same time, we do not burden partners with issues of growing and selling products. We take care of all processes. At the same time, we offer our partners the opportunity to personally participate in the development of related businesses - for example retail, packaging, salting and transportation of products.

How to invest in our business?

We have developed 3 business models:

1. Perpetual ownership. We allocate land for you, form a legal entity, set up communications ... in other words, we are preparing for you a full-fledged and working business of 10 or more greenhouses. The minimum entry threshold is 25,000,000 rubles, 2.5 million for each greenhouse.

This model is only for investors who are committed to long-term cooperation with a payback of 11 to 17 months. If you want faster returns on investment and profitability, this model has 2 drawbacks for you:

Large threshold of entry

Long preparatory period up to 12 months

In that case, look at the following options for participating in our business…

2. Rent from one greenhouse. Land, communications, specialists… everything is ready, we just need to prepare a greenhouse for you. Return on investment within 5 months, yield up to 110% per annum.

The beauty of this model is that you only need to invest 2,500,000 rubles for one greenhouse. This is 10 times less than in the previous version. Plus, it is possible at any time to switch to the first option and register ownership of the greenhouses in the process of work, without wasting time.

We also understand that such an entry threshold for many investors is high. Therefore, we have prepared another business model, unique in our industry, but which everyone can afford.

3. Investments from 300 rubles. With the help of the SIMEX Crowdfunding Exchange, you can buy investment shares of our business, with a minimum price of less than 300 rubles, thus forming an optimal investment portfolio, becoming part of our business and receiving passive income. In this case, the yield will be in the region of 70% per annum, due to the costs of maintaining the exchange.

What does everything look like in numbers?

Let's look at the example of the second option "Rent of one greenhouse".

1. You invest 2,500,000 rubles.

Your attachments are used as follows:

1,800,000 rubles - the cost of renting a greenhouse for a year, 10x100 meters in size

700,000 rubles - maintenance of the greenhouse during the first cycle. This is growing seedlings, buying fertilizers, paying utility bills, salaries to staff, and so on.

2. Once your greenhouse is up and running, it goes through 3 production cycle. Each cycle lasts 4 months and includes:

Greenhouse and soil preparation

Planting seedlings

plant care

Harvesting

Sales of products

3. Let's now look at the profitability of the business for 1 year:

The minimum revenue is 7,900,000 rubles, this is income from the sale of vegetables that will be grown in your greenhouse during the year

The costs for the second and third cycles, which are already taken from the revenue of the first and second cycles, are 500,000 + 500,000 = 1,000,000 rubles

The team's remuneration is 25% of the revenue - 7,900,000 * 0.25 = 1,975,000 rubles

Income: 7,900,000 - 1,000,000 - 1,975,000 = 4,925,000 rubles

4. Net profit: 4,925,000 - 2,500,000 = 2,425,000 rubles

That is 96% per annum. However, the revenue is calculated taking into account the prices for vegetables according to our statistics for the last 4 years, although during the current year they are growing faster, which gives you the opportunity to earn up to 110% per year.

5. In addition, you can, after the expiration of the contract, extend it on the same terms.

Questions we get asked most often

1. How do your conditions differ from those of other agricultural enterprises?

The fact that they are unique, and you will not find the like anywhere else. You can only offer to purchase READY business, but not its accompaniment. You yourself will need to find a team, introduce technologies, grow and sell products. That is, to participate in business in full.
